		<description>8 pages isn&#039;t too long...if it works :-)

Letters are getting shorter because of the common (ill-advised) concern that &quot;nobody wants to read a long letter.
&quot;
You know how it goes...

&quot;How long should a letter be?&quot;

As long as it need to be!

		<description>Eight pages? Wow! When we say &quot;long,&quot; we mean two pages or sometimes three pages.

		<description>Hi!

I love what you said about appeal letters. But long letters work better? It really depends on your demographic. I once got an EIGHT-PAGE LETTER from the league of women voters, and it just daunted me. I tried to read it, but it was seriously a case of TLDR.
